Sometimes, keeping your warehouse organised feels like an endless battle. If you’ve ever looked at your warehouse and thought, “When did this place turn into a game of hide and seek?” - you’re not alone. Warehouses are busy places, and whilst the brand-new setup might have once been in pristine order, things quickly get cluttered as soon as daily operations kick in.
Dexion’s story began with a simple yet profound truth: a solid foundation is the bedrock of endurance. Today, Dexion stands as an international established brand, used in warehouses across the world. But this ascent wasn’t fuelled by an innovative business idea alone; it was built on strong values and unwavering quality.

No warehouse can operate at optimum capacity or efficiency if the internal space isn’t configured with the right industrial racking to suit the products being stored.
Warehousing space comes with many associated costs and the larger the warehouse, in general, the bigger the running costs. Therefore, it makes sense to maximise the use of the space available, and that means not just looking at using the footprint capacity, but the height too.
Demand for warehousing across Europe is rocketing, fuelled by the rise of ecommerce, according to experts at international land agency Savills.
Efficient organisation of a warehouse is key to ensuring it operates at optimum capacity. One way to improve warehouse processes and operations is using the ABC method of inventory analysis.
